Posted on by

Two users of the report, from Germany and US use the same app created by a US developer. No error when a US user use the app but when the German user use the app, the fields are calculated by 1000.

 

On the US user app:

Text_Input_A: 5

Text_Input_B: 6

Label_Answer_C: 30,000.00

 

On the German user app:

Text_Input_A: 5

Text_Input_B:

6 Label_Answer_C: 30.000,00

 

Text_Input_A is on Screen 1, Format is Text

Text_Input B is on Screen 2, Format is Text

Label_Answer_C is on Screen 1, Formula is Text(Text_Input_A * Text_Input_B, "[$-en-US]#,###.00")


Thanks in advance for helping me on this

    Hi @katsquinx :

    Firstly,let me explain why you encounted this problem.

    In Germany, the functions of "," and "." in digital expression are completely opposite.

    "." is a three-digit separator above the ones place, and "," is used to separate the ones place and the decimal point.

    I think these links will help you a lot:

    Formula separators and chaining operator

    Secondly,If you want the numbers in the label to be displayed in English habit, please use the following formula:

    Text(Text_Input_A * Text_Input_B, "[$-en-US]#,###.00","en")

    I think this link will help you a lot:
